eCom Backend product sorting


Reply
Hi,

Although the new feature, which allows the user to specify which columns to be shown on the ecom backend product list, it has to count for the sorting window too. I have a custom field called Brand, which I very much need to see when sorting too :-) But hopefully there will be a much more complex frontend sorting too!!

Hi Jensen,

You can code a Nofication subscriber that subscribes to Dynamicweb.Notifications.eCommerce.ProductList.BeforeRender and sort or re-arrange your products here before the list is rendered.

Hi Lars,

It's backend... here I need the fields which I switch on to be shown on the product list to be visible on the list when manually sorting products too...

Oh, sorry, didn't get that. Not much luck using the notification approach, then.

Hi

Yes the chosen columns from the product list should also be reflected under the sorting functionality (as is the case e.g. when editing multiple products at once). I've added this as an improvement for future development.

Hi, I know this is a very old thread, but I have a question/suggestion about back-end product sorting that I think would be great to have when customers are manually updating products via back-end.

 

It would be nice to be able to sort the product list items by more types of product data, e.g. sort products by last time of edit, or sort by the groups they are in.

 

I hope this can be included in a future release.

 

Thanks.

Hi Jens Jakob

That sounds like a nice feature to include in a future release and we plan for adding the option to include additional sort columns including the "last time of edit" columns. Not sure we can include the group sort though as a product can be in multiple groups. 

I've added your request to our backlog.
